A brother is someone who will always be there for you, no matter what. Your sibling will grow up with you, go through the good times and the bad times, and help you through your life’s challenges. Brothers and sisters are a part of each other.
Brothers are not born: they are made from love. They are also not born with a set of instructions on how to care for their siblings or what to expect from them in return. A brother can be a best friend, a protector, and someone who knows all your secrets when nobody else does.
A brother is more than just a friend- he is also an advisor and listener as well as being an accomplice when it comes to getting into trouble! A sister is not just someone who shares your parents’ DNA
